Blank page after install...but can log into admin section

Post by HobbyWatch »

After successful install and after i click the "here is your cms" link i get a blank page.  I can log into the admin section but cannot see the actual website page.  I am running on a windows server if that matters.  Any suggestions....really looking forward into using this cms.

Thanks

Mambo sucks, that's why I am here.
Now they call it Joomla, but it still sucks!

Double check all paths and settings in config.php ?

Is the cache cleared?

I'm having the exact same problem here. Yes all the paths are correct, the cache has been cleared. I've installed and run CMSMS on 5 client sites, and have installed/am running 10.1 successfully on 2 sites. The one where it doesn't work is the only one running PHP 5.0.3 and MySQL 4.1.3. One of those must be the problem. Any ideas?

I may have discovered PART of the problem, at least for my version of php:

register_long_arrays  boolean

    Tells PHP whether or not to register the deprecated long $HTTP_*_VARS type predefined variables. When On (default), long predefined PHP variables like $HTTP_GET_VARS will be defined. If you're not using them, it's recommended to turn them off, for performance reasons. Instead, use the superglobal arrays, like $_GET.

    This directive became available in PHP 5.0.0.

I turned long arrays on in php.ini and restarted but still no index page. Must be something else that has been deprecated.
